Wegmans, the Rochester-based family chain, is set to open at Brooklyn Navy Yard in 2017, the New York Times reports. The Navy Yard’s board recently approved the redevelopment of the historic yet run-down homes of Admiral’s Row along Flushing Avenue.
“People need not just good food, but good jobs,” Danny Wegman, the grocer’s third-generation chief executive told the Times. “Brooklyn provides an incredible opportunity for both.”
The estimated cost for the expected grocer is at a whopping $140 million but is seems to be priceless for the residents of the Navy Yard and Fort Greene who anxiously await an affordable and reliable grocer.
